Whats up with Sharkspage?[Q. from Bob] What was up with Sharkspage over the weekend?

[A] We tried to change our DNS server, but it did not work. We will take a stab at it again over the offseason. Also the lack of updates was caused by an outage of our publishing tool at blogger.com.

On a positive note, we have a line on a used Nikon Coolpix 5000. A 5.24 mega-pixel camera capable of taking bursts of 8 shots in a 2 second span. This will make for amazing game photos.

The purchase in large part is due to commissions earned from fans shopping on this website. We look forward to testing the camera Feb. 5 against Nashville, Feb. 7 against Ottawa, and Feb. 9 against Vancouver.

1. The whole team needed a lecture after the Rangers game.2. When you make $9,500,000.00 a season, you should be prepared for criticism if you can't score consistently.3. Current Teemu stats: 41 GP 13G 14A -7 [75th]4. The team is 3-1 after D. Sutter's "alleged" comments.
